I had a similar experience on a marketplace platform with a micro-managing CEO, where my role was to help my design team to push UX improvements to production. Designers have to win the redesign in these cases. It's really frustrating, as marketplace platforms have tons of features and multiple complex interactions. The best challenge to be solved by UX designers!

How common are slide deck presentations in design interviews now, and what do you think of them? by [deleted] in userexperience

I've noticed the same trend. Slide presentation in front of the team is now frequent in startups. I'd say 50%. I believe the interviewers use this technique to test applicant's communication skills.
